Columbus Day has suffered an unprecedented diminution in importance
in recent years, at least in the eyes of the solons of modern American
culture.

Why? Columbus Day celebrates Christopher Columbus, the first
European (white person) to come to the Western Hemisphere and make the
presence permanent. Columbus Day, in other words, celebrates the advent
of the White race in the so-called New World of the Americas. This, of
course, is the last thing that the multicultural Left wants celebrated.

Their guiding principal, invented by both Trotsky and the Cultural
Marxists at approximately the same time, is best summed up by the late,
unlamented Susan Sontag’s famous quote, “The white race is the cancer of
human history.” Who wants to celebrate cancer? Consequently, Columbus
Day has been transformed from a holiday into an occasion for weeping,
wailing, rending of garments and gnashing of teeth by the Left.

Consider, if you will, the Western Hemisphere when Columbus
discovered it in 1492. The entire continent is estimated to have
sustained only a few hundred thousand people. It was a huge undeveloped
wildlife preserve; its population stuck for the most part in the New
Stone Age. And despite what the Left would have you believe, it was not
populated by peace-loving early environmentalists.

The indigenous inhabitants were bloodthirsty savages living in a
state of nature in which life, as Hobbes famously noted, was “nasty,
brutish and short.” The highest level of civilization achieved in the
Hemisphere by the indigenous was that of the Aztecs, famous for
capturing young men from neighboring tribes for ritual sacrifice and
ripping their still-beating hearts from their chests.

Where whites have gone and remained in control, civilization and
prosperity have flourished, not only in North America, but all over the
world. The only time any nations in sub-Saharan Africa have flourished
by modern standards was under white rule. Rhodesia, once called “the
breadbasket of Africa,” became Zimbabwe, the basket case of Africa, when
whites were guilt-tripped into turning over the reins of government to
blacks, the indigenous population of the region. Ditto for South Africa.

The primary beneficiaries of white rule are the nonwhites that live
in white dominated counties. Blacks in America, for instance, whipped
into an inconsolable frenzy by the Left regarding their imagined
mistreatment by whites, are the only oppressed people in the world who
consider themselves impoverished but routinely own and use cars, cell
phones, computers, iPads, flat-screen TVs, washing machines, clothes
dryers and dishwashers, and live in centrally air-conditioned homes with
yards, driveways and carports. They are also provided enough free food
by the government that they suffer, when left to their own devices, from
morbid obesity.

They apparently don’t travel abroad much, however, because if they
did, they’d see how favorably their imagined poverty stacks up to the
real poverty suffered by people in El Salvador, Honduras, Peru, Nigeria,
Cambodia, or almost any other country without a sizable white
population in charge of the government.

In fact, the only way that non-whites live in a First World
environment is when they are fortunate enough to live in a predominately
white nation. When they reach critical mass, or gain political
control, that nation will assuredly plummet to Third World status.

Places in America that resemble the Third World (Detroit, East St.
Louis, Oakland, ect.) almost always have a predominantly nonwhite
population coupled with nonwhite political leadership.

The most fortunate day in the ancestral history of any American,
regardless of race, color or creed, is the day when one of their
ancestors boarded a conveyance to America. This is true whether the
conveyance was a luxury ocean liner, a jet airplane, or a leaky slave
ship. And the reason America still attracts immigrants from all over the
world is because America is a white nation, and consequently enjoys a
level of prosperity only dreamed of in most of the world. Whites are the
key to that prosperity. If the nonwhites of the world knew what was
good for them they would nurture and protect whites like a hothouse
flower!

America, however, is at a crossroads. Whites, rather than a hothouse
flower, are actually an endangered species (or more correctly, a
subspecies) in today’s world, with their numbers and percentage of
population diminishing each year. Like many another endangered species,
we stop reproducing when our nesting grounds are disturbed.

In America, this disruption occurred when public schools were
racially integrated undemocratically, by court decree, beginning with
the infamous
Brown v. Topeka Board of Education Supreme Court decision
in 1954. Rather than throw their children into the veritable black hole
of Calcutta that many public schools have become due to Brown and its
progeny, many whites simply limited the number of children they had to
the number of children they could afford to send to private school.
Don’t ever imagine that this result was a coincidence.

That’s why we here at TPC constantly remind our audience that
“liberalism is the modern face of evil,” and this includes every aspect
and project of modern liberalism – including the supposedly sacrosanct
Civil Rights Movement.

Today, more than ever, we all need to ponder the significance of
Columbus and Columbus Day, and impress our friends, neighbors, and
children of its importance. Columbus Day truly should rank as one of the
most important and celebrated holidays of the year. Men like Columbus
didn’t endure sufferings, privations, danger and even death so we could,
like Esau, trade our inheritance for a mess of liberal, multicultural
pottage.

We invite everyone in our audience to make Columbus Day the true occasion for celebration and remembrance that it is!

Often times when I explain to someone that the Bible strictly forbids miscegenation (citing verses such as Deut 23:2) they say "yeah but Moses had an Ethiopian wife". It should be noted that Ethiopia was a word used to describe the entire known parts of Africa at the time. Regardless it is explained in the Apocrypha's Book of Jasher, Chapter 73
30 So Moses took the city by his wisdom, and the children of Cush placed him on the throne instead of Kikianus king of Cush.
31 And they placed the royal crown upon his head, and they gave him for a wife Adoniah the Cushite queen, wife of Kikianus.
32 And Moses feared the Lord God of his fathers, so that he came not to her, nor did he turn his eyes to her.
33 For Moses remembered how Abraham had made his servant Eliezer swear, saying unto him, Thou shalt not take a woman from the daughters of Canaan for my son Isaac.
34 Also what Isaac did when Jacob had fled from his brother, when he commanded him, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan, nor make alliance with any of the children of Ham.
35 For the Lord our God gave Ham the son of Noah, and his children and all his seed, as slaves to the children of Shem and to the children of Japheth, and unto their seed after them for slaves, forever.
36 Therefore Moses turned not his heart nor his eyes to the wife of Kikianus all the days that he reigned over Cush.
37 And Moses feared the Lord his God all his life, and Moses walked before the Lord in truth, with all his heart and soul, he turned not from the right way all the days of his life; he declined not from the way either to the right or to the left, in which Abraham, Isaac and Jacob had walked.
Once again another judeo pro miscegenation lie is destroyed. This "wife" was given to him after he sat on the throne but he never had sex with her or created children. You can begin to see why the Apocrypha was taken out of the Bible.

When I first watched the video my thoughts were "man the interviewer is a dick" so I looked up who hosted the show. Turns out his name is David Gregory, and guess what he is a jew and the icing on the cake he is married to former Fannie Mae VP Beth Wilkinson. So all these abrasive, leading and dishonest questions are simply there to make Ron Paul look bad. You can see how quickly they jump from topic to topic as Ron Paul shoots this kikes BS out of the air.
So fuck David Gregory, he is a jewish shill for the zionist state.

UPDATE - Chcek out regulator William Black's blistering reaction to this story HERE.
---
This story from Bloomberg just hit the wires this morning. Bank of
America is shifting derivatives in its Merrill investment banking unit
to its depository arm, which has access to the Fed discount window and
is protected by the FDIC.

This means that the investment bank's European derivatives exposure is now backstopped by U.S. taxpayers. Bank
of America didn't get regulatory approval to do this, they just did it
at the request of frightened counterparties. Now the Fed and the FDIC
are fighting as to whether this was sound. The Fed wants to "give
relief" to the bank holding company, which is under heavy pressure.

This is a direct transfer of risk to the taxpayer done by the bank without approval by regulators and without public input. You
will also read below that JP Morgan is apparently doing the same thing
with $79 trillion of notional derivatives guaranteed by the FDIC and
Federal Reserve.

What this means for you is that when Europe finally implodes
and banks fail, U.S. taxpayers will hold the bag for trillions in CDS
insurance contracts sold by Bank of America and JP Morgan. Even worse, the total exposure is unknown
because Wall Street successfully lobbied during Dodd-Frank passage so
that no central exchange would exist keeping track of net derivative
exposure.

This is a recipe for Armageddon. Bernanke is absolutely insane. No
wonder Geithner has been hopping all over Europe begging and cajoling
leaders to put together a massive bailout of troubled banks. His worst
nightmare is Eurozone bank defaults leading to the collapse of the large
U.S. banks who have been happily selling default insurance on European
banks since the crisis began.

Bloomberg

Excerpt:

Bank of America Corp. (BAC), hit by a credit downgrade last month,
has moved derivatives from its Merrill Lynch unit to a subsidiary flush
with insured deposits, according to people with direct knowledge of the
situation.

The Federal Reserve and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. disagree over
the transfers, which are being requested by counterparties, said the
people, who asked to remain anonymous because they weren’t authorized to
speak publicly. The Fed has signaled that it favors moving the
derivatives to give relief to the bank holding company, while the FDIC,
which would have to pay off depositors in the event of a bank failure,
is objecting, said the people. The bank doesn’t believe regulatory
approval is needed, said people with knowledge of its position.

Three years after taxpayers rescued some of the biggest U.S. lenders,
regulators are grappling with how to protect FDIC- insured bank
accounts from risks generated by investment-banking operations. Bank of
America, which got a $45 billion bailout during the financial crisis,
had $1.04 trillion in deposits as of midyear, ranking it second among
U.S. firms.

“The concern is that there is always an enormous temptation to dump
the losers on the insured institution,” said William Black, professor of
economics and law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and a
former bank regulator. “We should have fairly tight restrictions on
that.”

Moody’s Downgrade

The Moody’s downgrade spurred some of Merrill’s partners to ask that
contracts be moved to the retail unit, which has a higher credit rating,
according to people familiar with the transactions. Transferring
derivatives also can help the parent company minimize the collateral it
must post on contracts and the potential costs to terminate trades after
Moody’s decision, said a person familiar with the matter.

Keeping such deals separate from FDIC-insured savings has been a
cornerstone of U.S. regulation for decades, including last year’s
Dodd-Frank overhaul of Wall Street regulation.

U.S. Bailouts

Bank of America benefited from two injections of U.S. bailout funds
during the financial crisis. The first, in 2008, included $15 billion
for the bank and $10 billion for Merrill, which the bank had agreed to
buy. The second round of $20 billion came in January 2009 after
Merrill’s losses in its final quarter as an independent firm surpassed
$15 billion, raising doubts about the bank’s stability if the takeover
proceeded. The U.S. also offered to guarantee $118 billion of assets
held by the combined company, mostly at Merrill.

Bank of America’s holding company -- the parent of both the retail
bank and the Merrill Lynch securities unit -- held almost $75 trillion
of derivatives at the end of June, according to data compiled by
the OCC. About $53 trillion, or 71 percent, were within Bank of America
NA, according to the data, which represent the notional values of the
trades.

Moving derivatives contracts between units of a bank holding
company is limited under Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, which
is designed to prevent a lender’s affiliates from benefiting from its
federal subsidy and to protect the bank from excessive risk originating
at the non-bank affiliate, said Saule T. Omarova, a law professor at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law.

“Congress doesn’t want a bank’s FDIC insurance and access to the Fed
discount window to somehow benefit an affiliate, so they created a
firewall,” Omarova said. The discount window has been open to banks as
the lender of last resort since 1914.Continue reading at Bloomberg...

(NaturalNews) It takes a special kind of humility for a medical
professional to admit that something he or she was taught in medical
school, and has long since clung to as fact, is actually false. But a
growing number of dentists from around the world, many of whom formerly
supported water fluoridation, are now boldly speaking out against it as a
long-held, unsubstantiated medical dogma purported to prevent tooth
decay, but that actually damages health and provides no legitimate oral
health benefits.

Recently, there has been intense pressure in
many communities to remove fluoride chemicals from water supplies.
Particularly in the US where fluoridation is quite common, many local
residents have been sending information about fluoride's dangers to
their city council members, and even attending and speaking at meetings.

But
what is often missing from reports about anti-fluoridation efforts is
the fact that many medical professionals, including dentists, are also
in agreement that fluoride ingestion is dangerous. In other words, these
are not just concerned citizens without medical degrees that are
raising an issue, but they are people that have been extensively
educated in oral health.

"When I graduated from University, we
weren't given any information about where [fluoride] came from," says
Dentist Caree Alexander, a former Navy practitioner who also had a
private dental practice for 20 years, in the documentary FIRE WATER: Australia's Industrial Fluoridation Disgrace. "We all assumed it was [pharmaceutical-grade] calcium fluoride."

Other
prominent dentists that have spoken out against fluoride include Dr.
Thomas Connelly from New York City; Dr. Andrew Harms, former president
of the Australian Dental Association; Dentist Hardy Limeback, PhD, from
the University of Toronto's Department of Preventive Dentistry; Dentist
Bill Osmunson from the Fluoride Action Network (FAN); and Dentist David
Kennedy from the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology
(IAOMT), just to name a few.

"My [published] work showed that
fluoride accumulates in the human pineal gland and lowers melatonin
production in animals," says Dentist Jennifer Luke, PhD. "I find it
extraordinary that no government promoting fluoridation has chosen to
pursue these worrying findings."

Beyond simply ignoring the
science surrounding fluoride's dangers, the US government and its media
pawns routinely take the offensive against those opposed to water
fluoridation, slandering them as paranoid conspiracy theorists. But
there is no denying that thousands of medical professionals, including
dentists, are adamantly against it as well.

David DeGraw – one of the primary Wall Street protest organizers – just sent me the following email:

Top MoveOn leaders / executives are all over national
television speaking for the movement. fully appreciate the help and
support of MoveOn, but the MSM is clearly using them as the
spokespeople for OWS. This is an blatant attempt to fracture the 99%
into a Democratic Party organization. The leadership of MoveON are
Democratic Party operatives. they are divide and conquer pawns. For
years they ignored Wall Street protests to keep complete focus on the
Republicans, in favor of Goldman’s Obama and Wall Street’s Democratic
leadership.
If anyone at Move On or Daily Kos would like to have a public debate about these comments, we invite it.
Please help us stop this divide and conquer attempt.

DeGraw – who is wholly non-partisan [like the writers at Washington's Blog]
– tells me that there are many political views represented, and that
Occupy Wall Street is very diverse with opinions across the political
spectrum (and see this.)
This mirrors what some of the original organizers of various “Occupy”
protests in other cities have said as well: MoveOn attempted to take
credit for the events.
As I noted last week:

Everyone’s trying to cash in on the courage and conviction of the Wall Street protesters.
People are trying to associate Occupy Wall Street with their pet
projects, in the same way that advertisers try to associate the goodwill
of the Super Bowl, NBA playoffs, World Series or Olympics with their
product.
But I hear from OWS organizers that the protesters come from totally
diverse political affiliations. Many protesters support Ron Paul, many
like Obama, others are for other parties or candidates or don’t vote
at all.
The protesters themselves are having none of it, tweeting today:

We don’t want to be the democratic tea party or liberal
tea party. We want to be our own movement separate of any political
affiliation.

The two main challenges [facing the protesters are]: (1)
An attempt by both the Democratic and Republican parties to co-opt it
(see this, this and this); and (2) agents provocateur (see this, this and this) [and here].

Two of them may have been held captive in various locations around the United States for as long as 11 years, police said.
The victims, who all had the mental capacity of 10-year-olds, were discovered chained to a boiler in a tiny 15ft by 15ft basement room behind a steel door that was chained shut.
Philadelphia police Sergeant Joseph Green said: "This is just a horror story. They were abused physically and emotionally."
Three people have been charged with holding the victims as part of what is believed to have been an extended social security fraud.
Linda Westen, 50, a convicted murderer, allegedly posed as their caregiver while cashing their disability benefit cheques.
She and two alleged accomplices, Eddie Wright, 51, and Gregory Thomas, 48, were charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault and false imprisonment.
Police said two of the captives were held for 11 years and referred to Westen as "Mom."
They travelled with her as she moved from city to city, including stops in Texas and Florida.
The other two had been with Westen since February, and all of them arrived in Philadelphia earlier this month.
Sgt Green said the basement cell had contained "a couple water bottles but no food or anything. There was a bucket they used to urinate in."
The room looked like a Cold War-era bomb shelter and the ceiling was too low for an adult to stand up.
It contained a mattress with some bedding and a flat board with a pillow.
Officers were investigating a report of squatters in an apartment building when they found the victims.
They were taken for "much needed medical attention" at hospitals and were "doing well," police said.
The victims were a 29-year-old woman and three men aged 31, 35, and 41.
Philadelphia police spokesman Ray Evers said interviewing them had proved difficult and officers were trying to establish their identities.
He said: "We have no idea who some of these people are."

Yesterday, Ron Paul won the Los Angeles County straw poll. He had more votes than Romney and Cain combined. It was a small gathering but a confirmation of Paul's much larger victory in the California State Straw Poll last month.
And like the California Poll, it was virtually ignored by the national media. They prefer to bask in denial and focus on Herman Cain's showing in the recent Florida straw poll whose delegates were actually chosen last summer.
The distorted media coverage or lack of coverage of presidential candidate Ron Paul can sometimes reach comic proportions.
Yesterday the New York Daily News solemnly told its readers that Herman Cain, having just raised $8 million, was third in fundraising in the Republican field, right behind Romney and Perry. Don't they wish.
The truth is that Ron Paul is third and he is the candidate that raised the $8 million, not Herman Cain.
That's all right, Ron Paul supporters say. Keep it up. Nothing angers the "Paulistas" more than the flagrant favoritism and the manipulation of the media. On Oct. 19 the Ron Paul campaign is calling its next fundraiser, "Black This Out" a sarcastic response to debate hosts who purposely exclude him and blatantly promote their own favorites, regardless of the polls.
While he was the only presidential candidate in the last GOP debate to effectively use his question and while that question provoked a misstatement from the current front-runner, Herman Cain, no one seemed to notice.
Ron Paul had asked Cain why, in the past, he had opposed an audit of the Federal Reserve and why he had belittled those who were calling for it. Cain flatly denied he had ever said such a thing.
But here is the exact quote:
Some people say that we ought to audit the Fed. Here's what I do know. The Federal Reserve already has so many internal audits it's ridiculous. I don't know why people think we're gonna learn this great amount of information by auditing the Federal Reserve.
I think a lot of people are calling for this audit of the Federal Reserve because they don't know enough about it. There's no hidden secrets going on in the Federal Reserve to my knowledge.
Ron Paul's subsequent call for an audit won congressional approval and the resultant expose has stunned those who have seen it. In 2008 alone, the Federal Reserve dished out $16 trillion including money to the banks of its own board members and corporations like General Electric, which owns NBC television and the McDonald's hamburger chain.
Consider that the entire nation debt, which took years to amass, is only $14 trillion and you get an idea of why the Federal Reserve has always operated in secret, passing out its money to elitists insiders and corporations all at the expense of the rest of us who pay for it through devalued money.
Television networks no longer follow their own debates with online surveys of a winner. They rely on "Focus Groups" (wink, wink,) where they control the questions and the reporting of the results of those questions that they decide are "newsworthy."
After one recent debate the focus group of 30 people clearly picked Herman Cain as the winner of the debate while the network ignored its own, open, online poll showing Ron Paul the winner.
Why have online surveys at all? Ron Paul will win again and there will be nasty online correspondents ridiculing them for not mentioning it.
This week, one lonely media outlet, The Bedford Patch, a New Hampshire online news service, was brave enough to allow an open poll after Tuesday's Dartmouth Debate. When I voted this morning it was showing Ron Paul winning at 73 percent.
It was Sen. John McCain who first angrily referred to Sen. Rand Paul, the son of the presidential candidate, as a hobbit. The Liberty Movement has taken to the idea.
As J.R.R. Tolkien once said, "The hobbits may be little folk but they are honest and hardy and easily underestimated." So let Lord Sauron, Tolkein's antagonist, and his corporate partners and their media outlets, arm for war against Romney-Perry-Cain.
Ron Paul and the rest of the invisible band will stay on target, moving silently through the marshes, looking to Oct. 19, the next moneybomb fundraiser and a chance to speak with their dollars. Go ahead, they say to the media elites and their robber barons, black this out!
Doug Wead is a New York Times best-selling author and a former adviser to two American presidents. He is senior adviser to Ron Paul.

1. You voted for the initial Afghanistan invasion, targeting those who attacked the U.S. on 9/11. Many people view you as a complete pacifist. Are those people correct or is your foreign policy view misunderstood?
A: I don’t like war, I like peace — and we should have a lot more peace and a lot less war — but I’m not a pacifist. I’m a stickler for the Constitution. If we fought wars only when they were declared, we’d have a lot less fighting. Going after the people who were responsible for 9/11 is a different story. As a matter of fact, I did vote for the authority (to target the 9/11 terrorists), but immediately I realized that the authority would be abused, so I introduced a resolution to re-emphasize the principle of letters of marque and reprisal, which would be the authority to go after specific groups. They used that in our early history to go after the pirates. I thought this would be a good example where you can’t declare war against a country, but you can go after a smaller group. So, I was strongly opposed to occupation and taking over countries that had nothing to do with (9/11). Besides, if they were following that logic, they should have invaded Saudi Arabia. Fifteen of (the 9/11 terrorists) came from Saudi Arabia.
2. Could you beat President Obama in a debate?
A: I would have to believe I could (laughs), but I don’t go around talking about that. I think that I’ve been known to be very, very consistent, and he hasn’t been. So I think that would be enough to win the debate.
3. Even in a free market, costs for hospitals, doctors, drug and insurance companies can be high. You don’t support Obamacare. What could be done to correct that situation?
A: If you take something that is completely out of the government’s realm like computers and cellphones and televisions — even with inflation — prices go down because there is competition. Can you imagine if there were one (cellphone) company, or if we had government regulations requiring cellphones for everybody? It would have been a rip-off. The corporations would have run it, and prices would have skyrocketed. So there should be more competition in medicine.… There’s too many regulations. The drug companies and the insurance companies come in and they control it. They make more money, and patients get poorer medical care, and the doctor-patient relationship is destroyed.… Prices would go down — even on services — if the market was allowed to operate. There’s not been a market in medicine since 1965 (when Congress adopted Medicare and Medicaid).
4. Is it true that you have nothing to do with lobbyists? If so, why? And is it true that you accept no campaign donations from corporations?
A: I actually take a position where lobbying is petitioning, and you have to protect the right of all citizens to petition the government. But lobbyists generally stay away from me because they know where I stand…. They’re not going to change my vote, so they tend not to come to my office.… As far as funding goes, there are some corporations that believe in free markets, so they would send donations. It’s just so small compared to everybody else’s.
5. You have many positions that do not resonate well with either Republicans or Democrats. Very simply: How would you get anything accomplished if both sides of the aisle are not willing to work with you?
A: In reality, that sets the stage for me because people are sick and tired of a system that doesn’t work. Republicans and Democrats are always fighting. I work very well with opposition. I put coalitions together. You take, for instance, auditing the Fed. I had Democrats and Republicans support that. And a lot of Democrats and progressives don’t like the foreign policy that we have, and they’re unhappy with Obama. Civil liberties is something that both conservatives and libertarians and Democrats are concerned about. So actually, it’s a plus to say that the establishment Republicans and Democrats don’t agree with a lot of the things I say.… I think the people are closer to my positions than they are to either party’s leadership.

Stephen Anderson, a former NYPD narcotics detective, testified yesterday that he regularly saw police plant drugs on innocent people as a way to meet arrest quotas. Mr. Anderson is testifying under cooperation with prosecutors after he was busted for planting cocaine on four men in a bar in Queens. "It was something I was seeing a lot of, whether it was from supervisors or undercovers and even investigators," said Anderson.
"One of the consequences of the war on drugs is that police officers are pressured to make large numbers of arrests, and it's easy for some of the less honest cops to plant evidence on innocent people," said gabriel sayegh of the Drug Policy Alliance. "The drug war inevitably leads to crooked policing – and quotas further incentivize such practices."
The NYPD has also come under heat recently for arresting more than 50,000 people last year for low-level marijuana offenses – 86% of whom are black and Latino – making marijuana possession the number one offense in the City. Most of these arrests are the result of illegal searches by the NYPD, as part of its controversial stop-and-frisk practices. Marijuana was decriminalized in New York State in 1977 – and that law is still on the books. Smoking marijuana in public or having marijuana visible in public, however, remains a crime. Most people arrested for marijuana possession are not smoking in public, but simply have a small amount in their pocket, purse or bag. Often when police stop and question a person, they say "empty your pockets" or "open your bag." Many people comply, even though they're not legally required to do so. If a person pulls mari¬juana from their pocket or bag, it is then "open to public view." The police then arrest the person.
Last month, in a rare admission of NYPD wrongdoing, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly ordered all officers to stop charging people with misdemeanor marijuana violations based on improper searches. The new policy directive comes on the heels of a 2011 report released by DPA highlighting the enormous costs of marijuana arrests in New York and a public pressure campaign by advocacy groups and elected officials.
"Whether the issue is planting drugs (like this instance) or falsely charging people for having marijuana in public view (as is the case with the majority of marijuana arrests in NYC) the drug war corrupts police, ruins lives, and destroys trust between law enforcement and the communities that they serve," said sayegh.

Unfortunately, the mainstream media and most of our politicians are not
telling the truth about the collapse of the economy.

This generation
was handed the keys to the greatest economic machine that the world has
ever seen, and we have completely wrecked it. Decades of incredibly
foolish decisions have left us drowning in an ocean of corruption, greed
and bad debt.

Thousands of businesses and millions of jobs have left the country
and poverty is exploding from coast to coast. We are literally becoming
a joke to the rest of the world. It is absolutely imperative that we
educate America about what is happening. Until the American people
truly understand the problems that we are facing, they will not be
willing to implement the solutions that are necessary.

The following are the top 100 statistics about the collapse of the economy that every American voter should know....

#100 A staggering 48.5% of
all Americans live in a household that receives some form of government
benefits. Back in 1983, that number was below 30 percent.#99 During the
Obama administration, the U.S. government has accumulated more debt
than it did from the time that George Washington took office to the time that Bill Clinton took office.#98 Since Barack Obama was sworn in, the share of the national debt per household has increased by $35,835.#97 The U.S. national debt has been increasing by an average of more than 4 billion dollars per day since the beginning of the Obama administration.#96 It is being projected that the U.S. national debt will hit 344% of GDP by the year 2050 if we continue on our current course.#95 The Congressional Budget Office is projecting that U.S. government debt held by the public will reach a staggering 716 percent of GDP by the year 2080.#94 In 2010, the U.S. government paid $413 billion in interest on the national debt. That is projected to at least double over the next decade.#93 According to one new survey, one out of every three Americans would not be able to make a mortgage or rent payment next month if they suddenly lost their current job.#92 State and local government debt has reached an all-time high of 22 percent of U.S. GDP.#91 In 1980, government transfer payments accounted for just 11.7% of all income. Today, government transfer payments account for 18.4% of all income.#90 U.S. households are now receiving more income from the U.S. government than they are paying to the government in taxes.#89 According
to a new study conducted by the BlackRock Investment Institute, the
ratio of household debt to personal income in the United States is now 154 percent.#88 If you can believe it, one out of every seven Americans has at least 10 credit cards.#87 According
to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, health care costs accounted for just
9.5% of all personal consumption back in 1980. Today they account for
approximately 16.3%.#86 The cost of a health insurance policy for the average American family rose by a whopping 9 percent last
year, and according to a report put out by the Kaiser Family Foundation
and the Health Research and Educational Trust, the average family
health insurance policy now costs over $15,000 a year.#85 One study found that approximately 41 percent of working age Americans either have medical bill problems or are currently paying off medical debt.#84 An all-time record 49.9 million Americans
